About Me
I am a Technical Team Lead / Senior Software Developer with 8 years experience, predominantly building database-driven web applications. I have a passion for building the best software I possibly can and am interested in not just technologies but also the processes and tools that can get a software team up and running in the most efficient and productive manner.
I have learnt an awful lot from the art of extreme programming, including what shortcuts a project team could take as well as those they should avoid, and firmly believe that nurturing a proper environment and culture amongst colleagues can pay worthwhile dividends very quickly.
My primary tech skills are Java and Oracle combined with various related Open Source technologies – Spring, Hibernate, Apache, Tomcat etc.
My CV with full technical details is available on this site. If you wish to contact me, please e-mail ame@andrew-eells.com.
